The World Comes to West Virginia
What happens when you bring together 45,000 people to a Scout Camp in West Virginia? Scouting is what happens! First the IST arrived, the International Service Team, these are adult scouters from all over the world that have paid to volunteer! Next Scouts from the host countries of Canada, Mexico and the United States arrived and then on July 22 the rest of the world arrived, Scouts from 145 countries!
What happened next! Fun, Adventure, Leadership, Cultural Exchange and the most important thing, Hope for our World, hope that these Scouts will learn to live with each other, respect each other and make this world a better place.
